Chapter 401: Unpredictable
"Did my brother tell you that?" the corners of his mouth turned up with a presumptuous smile, full of mockery.
"No, it's me. She gritted her teeth and said firmly, Brother Qingliu has not yet reached the point of begging him to let Guo Duo go.
"Haha. He laughed again, making Shang Muli a little incomprehensible. Of course, it can't be Xu Qingliu who asked her to say these words, because my brother doesn't like Guo Duo at all, and my brother likes Shang Muli! Although he has never said it to himself personally, but compared to his own brother, his every move can make Xu Qinghe affirm that he really likes Shang Muli, and now she is actually sewing wedding dresses for others. Brother, brother, even though you have always been very smart and won the appreciation and love of outsiders, but you can't get the heart of the woman you like, and you are really weak compared to yourself at this point.
Seeing him laughing insolently, Shang Muli clenched his fists: "Xu Qinghe, you must know that Xu Qingliu is your own brother!" How can you snatch a woman with your own brother, besides, the two of them are the first to communicate with their parents.
Xu Qinghe calmed down, and he didn't know if Shang Muli was too stupid, just stupid and cute. On the surface, he seems to have hurt his brother by snatching love with a knife, but in fact, he is helping him, asking him not to marry a woman he doesn't love also helps Guo Duo, not to marry a loveless marriage. "Okay, I won't tease you, in fact, I have never thought of hurting my brother, I have not forgotten his care for me for decades, I just want to inherit my father's mantle, and coincidentally, my brother also wants to inherit. The meaning has been said obviously, he didn't want to go against Xu Qingliu, but in terms of the identity of the heir, they had contradictions.
"Inheritance ......" Shang Muli thought silently, yes, what is always unavoidable in a big family is to inherit the position of the head of the family, Xu Qingliu and Xu Qinghe have already reached this time, and the reason why they hold on to Guo Duo is because Master Xu values the Guo family and Guo Duo very much. The Guo family is in the noodle business, which has won the love of the common people, and what they care about most about is the public's opinion of them. Xiao Duoer is kind and cute, and being able to marry into the Xu family as the daughter-in-law of the Xu family is also what Master Xu is looking forward to. If Xu Qinghe succeeds, the Guo family is his backing, and Master Xu will naturally set his eyes on this second son who has been blinded by dust for a long time. The palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, and he will be fair.
"You are too inscrutable, Brother Qingliu has never doubted you, he is the eldest son and excellent in all aspects, inheriting the mantle of Master Xu should have been. ”
"Tut-tut. Xu Qinghe snorted disdainfully, and looked at her coldly, the look in his eyes that he had never shown before, exuding hostility and ridicule: "You are behind my Boss Li, and I don't have to be my brother." ”
I'm not interested in playing with Xiao Duoer today, so let's continue tomorrow. He turned his back and waved his hand away, Shang Muli looked at his back fixedly, his mind was very confused.
The Shangmu Mansion is very quiet, because the master does not like to be clean, and all the subordinates do things silently. Although the house is huge, it is very clean. Shang Mu Sijue has been drowning himself in work recently, he goes to work in Jue Lingyu Field every day and night, and rarely goes back, even if he goes back to the house, most of them are dark and go out before dawn when he goes back.
Ling Ling'er now lives in Shangmu Mansion, but she generally can't see Shangmu Sijue, because his schedule is too short, and he doesn't go back to the mansion often. In addition, he didn't want to see himself, and Ling Ling'er controlled his desires during this time and barely cleaned him. If she misses him a little, most of the time she just stands on a higher place and watches him out, usually at that time the sky is cloudy.
The maid beside her felt very sorry for her and felt unfair for her: "Miss, you look at Boss Shangmu so secretly every day, he won't know, why bother getting up so early every day to see him?"
Ling Ling'er looked at the sun that had just risen in the sky and shook her head, "You are still young, do you have someone you like, if you have someone you like, you will understand that what I am doing now is nothing." And why would she want to look at him from afar, if it weren't for the fact that he had been in a bad mood lately and didn't want to see her, she wouldn't have been so far away from him. Man, that's it, the more you pester him, the more annoying he finds you.
"Now that I'm up, I can't sleep, and the weather is good today, so let's go meet an old friend and buy some things." She said with a smile, but there was a fire of jealousy burning in her eyes.
Now the sky is still blue, and the people in the vegetable market have come early, most of them are farmers in the neighborhood, in order to earn a little more money, they have to get up earlier than ordinary people.
Then the door of the glazed jade shop also opened, and the two employees, Chunhua and Qiuyue, were very diligent. Shang Muli only needs to sit there and settle accounts, and nothing else needs to be done. Soon, the two little girls cleaned the shop.
"You two come over and taste the jujube I bought, it's sweet. Shang Muli enthusiastically called the two of them to his side, and now that the store has just opened, this point is not the peak period for customers. Now that they have finished their work, they all come to relax and reward them for eating jujubes.
A red jujube was stuffed into her mouth, and a sense of happiness immediately appeared on the faces of the two girls in Chunhua and Qiuyue, "Boss Li, this jujube is so sweet!" Shang Muli nodded proudly, of course, these dates were snatched by her from Liu Duchao, I heard that it was rewarded to him by the boss of the division, looking very delicious, Shang Muli snatched it away, and Liu Dui was embarrassed to rob a big man with her a woman, plus he didn't like sweets very much, so he simply gave it to her.
When three people were having a good time, two people suddenly walked in. Hearing the footsteps, Chunhua immediately put down the dates and said, "I'll come, I'll come, you guys eat first." ”
She wiped her hands and walked over politely, and there was an eldest lady and one of her personal maids. Chunhua glanced up at them, thinking that the fabrics that the girl was wearing looked very expensive, and it seemed that the status of this eldest lady was also very noble. She bent over more politely and asked, "May I ask what do you need?"
The eldest lady's gaze tightened Shang Mouli, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, "Buy some jade ornaments." ”
"Okay, I'll show you these latest styles. "Chunhua is quite happy, usually the people who come to their store to buy things are people from the middle and lower classes, and there are very few such big ladies, almost untouchable.
Shang Muli, who was eating jujubes, suddenly stopped, and his eyebrows wrinkled impatiently. Qiu Yue was shocked when she saw the boss like this, it didn't mean that she didn't go to receive the guests and blame her, right? Just as she was about to explain, Shang Muli's face suddenly changed, and she stood up with a smile: "What kind of wind is this that actually blew Sister Ling'er here!"
"Sister Li, I haven't seen you for a long time, you're a lot more beautiful. Ling Ling'er smiled gently, just like a rumor, Ling Ling'er, the eldest lady of the Ling family, is this lady with an extraordinary temperament, and she really deserves her reputation when she sees it today. Spring Flowers and Autumn Moon all set their eyes on Ling Ling'er's body. It turns out that she is the eldest lady of the Ling family, she looks so beautiful, she should be confessed when she walks on the road, right? The two little girls couldn't help but be a little envious, but there were still some rumors in the market that the relationship between her and Boss Li was not very good, just like now, although the two of them are talking with smiles, but the two of them look weird, and the whole store suddenly became cold.
The girl beside Ling Ling'er suddenly stepped back, and she looked at Shang Muli's eyes a little vigilant. She didn't expect that the shop that Ling Ling'er brought her to was actually opened by Shang Muli. Miss Ling's favorite boss Shang Mu once had a relationship with Shang Muli, and this girl didn't like Shang Muli.
Shang Muli's eyes were indifferent, and he snorted disdainfully: "My sister is modest, I am still the same, but my sister's beauty makes people jealous." It's all a compliment, but I can't hear the slightest exaggeration. Chunhua Qiuyue stepped aside a little timidly, and there was something wrong with Boss Li's current atmosphere!
"Sister, you won't be welcome when you come to your store today to buy some jade ornaments, right?" Ling Ling'er suddenly asked innocently, her expression pitiful as if Shang Muli had already said something cruel.
